1 Overview
1.1 Hardware Structure

This section describes the hardware structure of the SoftX3000. The SoftX3000 system consists of subracks, LAN Switches, backend administration module (BAM), and integrated gateway billing (iGWB). Subracks are the host of the SoftX3000 system and are responsible for service processing and resource management. The BAM and iGWB are the servers of the SoftX3000 system and are responsible for OAM and bill management. LAN Switches connect the subracks to the BAM and iGWB and enable the subracks to communicate with the BAM and iGWB. Figure 1-1 shows the hardware structure of the SoftX3000.

Configuration Guidance
Configure the integrated configuration cabinet as follows:
l
In an integrated configuration cabinet, the iGWB, BAM, hard disk array (when the iGWB uses the IBM X343 server), LAN Switch 0, LAN Switch 1, KVMS, air deflector, basic subrack and power distribution box must be configured. Other components are optional. NET Switch 1 and NET Switch 0 are optional. They work with the IFMIs in the basic subrack to support IP networking for the SoftX3000. If the SoftX3000 uses a separate MRS, you must configure an expansion subrack at the near top of the integrated configuration cabinet. Otherwise, configure a media resource subrack or MRS6100.
Configuration Notes
Note the following:
l
If neither an expansion subrack nor a media resource subrack is configured, cover the position at the top of the integrated configuration cabinet with a standard filler panel. The media resource subrack can be configured with only the MRCA and MRIA.
2.2.2 Service Processing Cabinet

4.1 Overview of the Boards

This section describes the classification of SoftX3000 boards. 750C boardsand 750B boards differ in their hardware versions. Any board of 750C or 750B serials can function as the FCCU, IFMI, BSGI, MSGI, or CDBI after being installed with corresponding hardware or software. The SoftX3000 of V300R601C03 and later versions support both 750C and 750B boards. The SoftX3000 of V300R003, V300R005, V300R006, V300R601C01, and V300R601C02 versions support only 750B boards.
NOTE
For details about 750B boards, see 4 Boards. For details about differences between 750C boards and 750B boards, see 4.1.6 Differences Between Series Boards.
4.1.1 Classification of Boards This section describes the classification of boards. 4.1.2 Classification of Boards This section describes the classification of boards. 4.1.3 Mechanical Structure of Boards For the SoftX3000, the mechanical structures of all boards are basically the same, which facilitates board removal and insertion. 4.1.4 Working Modes of Boards Boards have three working modes: independent working mode, load-sharing working mode, and active/standby working mode. Boards working in different modes are replaced in different procedures. 4.1.5 Switching Modes of Boards This section describes the automatic switchover and manual switchover of boards. 4.1.6 Differences Between Series Boards This section describes the differences between 750C boards and 750B boards.
4.1.1 Classification of Boards

This section describes the classification of boards.
Functions
A board is the basic functional unit of the system. Boards co-work with each other to achieve the established functions. Both the front boards and back boards of the SoftX3000 are inserted into the backplane in the middle of a subrack. The functions of the boards are as follows:
l l l
Front boards: They are the service processing boards and management control boards. Back boards: They are the protocol processing boards and interface boards. Backplane: It provides a communication channel for other boards.
4-2
4 Boards
All the SoftX3000 boards are hot swappable, except the HSCI and the SIUI. This means that the board is swappable while in operation. Some of the boards have a hot-swapping indicator OFFLINE on the front panel and a hot-swapping switch on the ejector lever.
l
When you insert a board into the subrack and restore the ejector lever, the hot-swapping switch is closed. When you push open the ejector lever, the switch is open. Then the MBUS module of the board sends a board-swapping request to the active SMUI in the subrack and terminates all services on the board. When the hot-swapping indicator is on, you can unplug the board.

4.1.3 Mechanical Structure of Boards

For the SoftX3000, the mechanical structures of all boards are basically the same, which facilitates board removal and insertion. In the SoftX3000, all boards consist of a circuit card, connector, upper ejector lever, lower ejector lever, fastening screws, locks, and positioning pins, as shown in Figure 4-2.

4.1.4 Working Modes of Boards

Boards have three working modes: independent working mode, load-sharing working mode, and active/standby working mode. Boards working in different modes are replaced in different procedures.
Active/Standby Working Mode

If two boards work in the active-standby mode, the active board carries the service load and the standby board backs up the data of the active board periodically. When the active board is faulty, the standby board takes over the load from the active board. Before replacing a board, ensure that it is in the standby.
Load-Sharing Mode
The load-sharing mode is also called the resources pool mode. In this mode, a group of boards of the same type are configured in a functional subrack and share the same tasks. Normally, each board in the group shares 1/n (n >= 2; "n" refers to the number of boards in the group) of service load in their group. If you replace one board in a group, the system will transfer the service load taken by this board to other boards in the group. In case of heavy traffic, other boards in this group may be overloaded, resulting in traffic congestion. Therefore, you must replace boards when the traffic is light, for example, at 2:00 a.m.
4 Boards
Independent Working Mode

In the independent working mode, a functional subrack is configured with only one board of a specific type. Replacing different boards may have different consequences. For example, replacing the ALUI does not affect the services of the system, so this operation is relatively safe. Replacing the backplane, however, requires powering off the devices in the entire subrack. This will inevitably affect the system. In this case, you must contact Huawei technical support engineers for help.
NOTE
In adjunct working mode, sub-board replacement depends on the working mode of the board where the sub-board resides.
Table 4-2 shows the working modes and positions of the boards in the SoftX3000 service subracks.
NOTE
Hot-swapping indicates in-service removal and insertion of boards, that is, real-time removal and insertion of boards.

4.1.5 Switching Modes of Boards

This section describes the automatic switchover and manual switchover of boards.
Automatic board switchover

When the software or hardware of an active board is faulty, the system automatically switches over the services from the active board to the standby board.
Manual board switchover

During deployment, board replacement, board test, switchover test and troubleshooting, you are required to manually switch over boards through the LMT.
4.1.6 Differences Between Series Boards

This section describes the differences between 750C boards and 750B boards.
Functions
750B boards and 750C boards can function as general service processing boards such as the FCCU, IFMI, BSGI, MSGI, CDBI, UACU, AGCU, and MRCA. Table 4-3 describes the work modes of 750C boards. Table 4-3 Work modes of 750C boards Work Mode Load-sharing mode

5.4 BAM and iGWB (HP ProLiant DL380 G6 Server)

This section describes the BAM and iGWB (HP ProLiant DL380 G6 Server).
Functions
The Back Administration Module (BAM) and iGWB servers are installed in the integrated configuration cabinet. They are built on the HP ProLiant DL380 G6 servers. The BAM is the server of the operation and maintenance (O&M) system. It bridges the boards of the host and the O&M system. The BAM forwards the O&M commands from O&M system to the host, and sends the responses from the host to the O&M system. It also stores and transfers the alarm and traffic measurement data. The BAM server is an HP ProLiant DL380 G6 server with two hot-plug SAS hard disks, which are configured with the RAID 1 error tolerance technique for data protection. RAID 1 employs the complete mirroring technique, that is, all the data on a hard disk has a complete mirror on the other hard disk. If one hard disk fails, the control program restores the lost data from the mirrored hard disk without affecting the operation of the server. The iGWB server is an intermediate billing device between the host and the billing center. It receives, preprocesses, and stores bills at a speed of 1700 CDRs per second. In addition, it provides the billing interfaces. The iGWB servers are also built on HP ProLiant DL380 G6 servers. They work in active/standby mode. Each iGWB server has five hot-plug SAS hard disks, which are configured with the RAID5 + Hot spare redundancy and error tolerance technique for data protection.
NOTE
RAID 5 is a data storage method in which data, along with information used for error correction, is distributed among two or more hard disk drives to improve the read/write performance. If one hard disk fails, the disk controller can restore the lost data from other running disks without affecting data availability. Compared with RAID 5, RAID 5 + Hot spare has a hot-spare backup disk and therefore it is more reliable.

6.1 Service Processing Subrack

This section describes the service processing subrack. The service processing subrack is the core of service processing in the SoftX3000. Configured with different boards, the service processing subrack is categorized into basic subrack and expansion subrack.
6.2 PDB
This section describes the PDB.
Functions
l
The PDB supports 2-input power supplies and a maximum of dual 10-output power supplies. The input voltage of the PDB is -48 V DC or -60 V DC. The maximum current of each input is 100 A. After taking internal lightning protection and overcurrent protection measures for the input power supplies, the PDB distributes dual 10-output power supplies (-48 V DC or -60 V DC). The PDB also monitors the input voltage and output voltage, and generates an audio-visual alarm when it detects a fault. In addition, the PDB provides a centralized power monitoring function to enable remote power control.

This section describes the straight through cable.
Functions
Table 8-6 lists the classification and function of the straight through cable. Table 8-6 Classification and function of the straight through cable Type Straight through cable between LAN Switches Function To ensure that LAN Switches work in the dual backup mode, the two S3528G LAN Switches in the integrated configuration cabinet need to be interconnected through three straight through cables. The straight through cable is used to transmit heartbeat detection signals so as to complete dual backup of data and ensure data security. The iGWB and the BAM are installed in the integrated configuration cabinet. Each server uses two straight through cables to connect with the active and standby LAN Switches. The ports marked with 10/100BT6 at the uppermost position of the active and standby HSCIs are connected to the active and standby LAN Switches respectively with straight through cables. This enables the communication between the boards in the service subracks and BAM, and interconnection between the service subracks. The communication between the iGWB/BAM, boards in the service subrack and the MRS is implemented through the LAN Switch. The FE signal cable is a straight through cable, used to connect the HSCI and the SIUI (back board of the SMUI).

NOTE
Both the BAM and the EWS are connected to the LAN Switch through the straight through cables. This helps the EWS to back up data in the BAM periodically. In addition, when the BAM and iGWB are configured separately, you must lay two straight through cables between the EWS and the LAN Switches in advance. When the BAM works normally, these two cables are disconnected from the LAN Switches. Once the BAM becomes faulty, immediately connect these two cables with the active and standby LAN Switches respectively. This enables the EWS to resume the services of the BAM.

9.2 Label Types and Structures

This section describes types and structures of labels. Engineering labels fall into signal cable labels and power cable labels.
Signal Cable Labels

Signal cable labels are in the flap-type structure of fixed size (unit: mm), as shown in Figure 9-1. Figure 9-1 Signal cable label paper

9 Labels
A dividing line on a label helps specify more clearly the position of a cable. For example, a dividing line lies between a cabinet number and a subrack number, and another one between the subrack number and a slot number. A dividing line is 1.5 mm x 0.6 mm in size, with the color of Pantone 656c (light blue). A cut dotted line helps fold a label when sticking the label. The line is 1.0 mm x 2.0 mm in size.
NOTE
There is a mark TO: (upside down in the figure) at the lower right corner of the label. The mark is used to identify the opposite end of the cable on which the label is affixed.
Power Cable Labels

A power cable label is symmetric on both sides. It is stuck on the middle area of the identification plate on a cable tie. Around the label is an embossment (0.2 mm x 0.6 mm). Figure 9-2 shows the label paper for power cables. Figure 9-2 Power cable label paper
